Bitcoin Forum

I don't have much time to do a research, soo.. I need an advice!
ICO, that I'm interested in will start in few days. So, when should I buy it's tokens?
To be more specific 2/11 starts Confideal's ico.
Thank you guys!

This ico is about a month, yes? I'll try do it on a second week because of hype decreasing.

It is bad to make investments without making research. But if you really want to buy it, you should target the time when it offers the most bonus to make the most out of your money. Some ICO changes their bonus rate. Most of the time, it is the most during pre-ico and same or not much during the main ico.

Typically, you buy during the first week of ICO. The reason is because ICOs usually give more bonuses at the start and decrease this promotion slowly as the weeks pass. An ICO for example would give 100% bonus on the first week, 80% on the second week, 60% on the third, etc, etc.

That being said, my recommendation is to stay away from ICOs because you said you have "no time to research." Never buy any ICO without proper research. You need a solid project with a good team, and a real world use. Otherwise, you'll just be wasting your money.



Oh yeah? Nice username you got there.

But if you are wanna participating in the crowdsale and it seems not a best time for you to get in. Just think why you shall buy or try to join in there at the ico sale. If that was pre-sale and that should become a very good time to buy. But as far as i know about the ico will try to offer very high bonus at the early start and it should be considered as the best time for you to buy or join in the token sale.
Did you not interested to fine another good ico? i suggest you about spectre.ai  ;)

Thanks for the info.
About Confideal a lot of hype, and when spectre starts ico?

Always research before investing in an ICO. Don't let FOMO rule, don't get swept up in the hype.
I don't know the details of that specific ICO, but in general if you are going in it is best to get in as early as possible to take advantage of any bonuses.

Do some research if you are about to buy or invest to ICOs tokens like you would definitely found it to googke search engine if they had some blogs and advertisements, in social media or in mainstream..
Some successful ICOs were giving tokens to the members of this forum and some of them got from web airdrops.
So I'm sure if that ICO is promising and the team is too good to be true then go for it. Otherwise don't invest huge amount of money that greater than what you had to lose.

Now the ico project, many are loss, speculation people become less, and so the price is lower than the issue price to buy it again.

I think you should watch it for a few days before deciding whether to invest in ico or not. If more interested investors then it,  you think about whether invest it or not.

Usually the best time to buy ICO tokens is during the PRE-ICO which normally has good sales for 1 week then prices go slightly up during the 2nd week.
But its recommended that before buying into something, do some research.

You should buy token either during first few hours or first few days where they mostly give heavy discounts or at lower price during their pre-ICO if they have any.

But if you can't invest in those tokens during ICO or pre-ICO than buy them from exchanges when there will be dump from all bounty hunters. Look for bounty distribution dates...

I'm stuck with 4 tokens from 4 ICOs. I've bought them and when they went on market the price dropped below ICO price. So it might be not a bad idea to by tokens after ICO, when they hit the market and drop in price after few days of trading.

I usually buy on presale stage. If there is no presale then will wait for biggest bonus timeframe.
and also if there is a big bounty budget then i will wait for bounty hunter to dump the token :)

Putting your money in buying ICO tokens is not really a good idea. But if you really trusted that certain ICO, then its up to you. Buy only tokens that is already enlisted in any exchanger and have a value in the market, as it gives assurance for you to have something in return after holding it for awhile.

I usually try to buy tokens as early as I can (pre-saleà because it's when you get the biggest bonus.

The best time to buy ICO wil be first week. But in my and other opinions investment in it without research it have no sense and it is very risky

I think we should buy ETH tokens and then send it to Confideal ICO smart contracts
you can read more here https://medium.com/@confideal/how-to-participate-in-confideal-ico-e0a6da9057a9

I guess buying projects which look interesting is a good way to proceed. If the team and the concept are solid, you should not hesitate to buy. It's like venture capital. Most of the ICO's are going to fail but the one which becomes large will bring in big money.

if you dont have much time to research about ICO which you're going to buy then i advise you should not invest to ICO. Reason:
Now everyday is rising many ICO that 90% is scam project so why must you expect to advise anyone?
Moreover, it's difficult to determine the time buy token, many token which increased its price after ICO end but many token of a good project was downed when ICO was end (example: Centra token)

Totally agree with this, I have heard that the Eash ICO is about to pre-sale in the end of this month, they got great discount for the first week. I like that project because it is do helpful if people can get a better way to loan.

Thank you all, guys!
Appreciate your replies!

It really depends

the best time is the pre-ico as this ussually includes the best bonuses. then after that the earlier the better depending on if the program offers early contributer bonuses.

eg sirin labs day one is 100% bonus compared to the final day of ICO there for you would recieve double the amount of token per ETH compared to people who contribute on day 15

Now  ;D in good ICO. Today I'm buying Artoken, this ICO has just started last week https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2316185
really promising one! I have followed the project for a while and believe it's a good one!

you should always learn about many ico. because it is part of crypto investment. so if you do not want to get things you dont want. inevitably you have to investigate and examine it.

Just buy ICO tokens when you identified if that ICO will be success, check always their future projects, road map or whitepapers. It's very profitable when joining ICO, since the price of their coin is too low compare it when it will be available in exchangers. Do your own research first before participating in ICO. For now, I have participated in 1 ICO and it was successful and I'm very thankful.

i would buy eth or btk tokens and lay it somewhere with smart contracts.

You will usually make your choice of betting and gambling ICOs. Because such ICOs are too many and often preferred. You can research and invest in Bitdice (CSNO).

Just send from the wallet the ethereum to the specified address, and then just add a token

Whenever you feel sure the project is great.

Latest ICO has been launched 1st of November with a great concept of co-creation and with mvp

App allows connecting businesses with the crowd and co-create the product or service. Check it out here (https://ico.crowdholding.com/)

easy promotion mate,there are many ICO that are worth buying but doesn't guarantee success for theres a big competition over them what we need first is to analyze the ico and make it success by supporting and promoting it,then invest more when the ico already reach success

Some of the ICO's don't accept only Ethereum. They usually use that coin, Bitcoin and waves for their crowdsales for some reason.

Just purchase Bitcoin then hold it for a few years because the price will go up really soon. There's already a bunch of people talking about it.

What is really weird is that most coins make a bunch of coins through their pre sale and they decide to get more money through their crowdsale, it doesn't generate any interest for the OG whales.

This makes senses. Once can wait for the whales to dump their holdings and wait for the price to stabilise. Anyway, if I spot a promising project, I'd go pre-ICO or when not too sure, 50% pre-ICO and 50% ICO or post ICO.

Hope that isn't bearish.

When you determine the ICO isn't a complete scam and offers value to people. Find peers good in FA and learn from them, ask them what they think about ICOs you like and buy if you like the answers. If you wait to buy once some popular crypto expert confirms it, it would be already too late.

pre ICO and the first day ICO is the best day to buy the coin because its always the highest bonus
you just need to make a lot of research or make sure first that the coin is worth to invest
do not buy even there a lot of bonus until your sure enough

I know you have time. But you just don't want to read or study about the new ICOs. You should really do your own research because having breat kniwledge is the most ehem3 in this world. Wether through sports or not. So i suggest you invest a lot of time studying the project, it's developers plus the ann thread to know how far thy are from scams or legitimacy.

Most ICOs spit thesame jargon and it's becoming difficult to tell which is which.

Do you have any tips or red flags that has worked for you?

This is why investing on these project is risky but we should really need to risk money for us to earn money. Talking about on the best time to purchase tokens is really on pre-sale because this is the time on where coins are on big discount and as we do observe as the weeks passed by the bonus gradually lessens which means it do lessen the amounts of profits if you do late to get in but now on what i am doing i do already wait for those coins to be listed first on exchanger before i decide to buy in because most of them do really dump because of bounty hunters.

Lots of new alts are doing x0.5 from ICO price! Best strategy now - to wait listing of the coin on some exchanges and if you dont change your mind - buy it there at half of price or lower.

I think you should follow them when they before pre-sale, see Eash.io.https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2339270.msg24107245#msg24107245 They are the fist SelfLoan platform. EASH-loan with 1% interest, without deadline, privacy violation, or credit score requirements. It has been realized on Ethereum. I think it has the unique idea, and really helpful.

I like to buy tokens in first days as ICO began. I make research of the project before it and then make a decision about the size of investment. This strategy brought me some profits yet.

But there are different ways exist to earn.
